Urdu main maheenon ke naam.

Urdu main haftay ke dinon ke naam to hain, par maheenon ke naam kiyun hani hain ? :naraz:

Laaaame.

Because we don't have our own calendar. Hindu, Persian, Arabic, Chinese ...they ask have thier own calendar system,, hence they own names.

Re: Urdu main maheenon ke naam.

kiuN nahiiN haiN!...yeh rahe na...janvari, farvari, marach, aprai'l, maii, joon, joolaii, agust, sitambar, navambar, disambar...:D

vaise, India ke dehaatoN meN mahiinoN ke dehaatii naam haiN...those names are really quite interesting because they are mostly based on the 'Urs days of auliyaa-e-karaam...jaise:

1. Khaajmuddin = is mahiine meN Hazrat Khowaaja Mo'iinuddin Chishtii [r.a.] kaa Urs manaayaa jaataa hai
2. peer dastgiir = is mahiine meN Abdul Qadir Jilani [r.a.] kaa 'Urs manaayaa jaataa hai
3. Meera Ji = i dunno which wali this name is variation of.
4. Madar saahib = same as above
5. chhoTe peer ji **= same as above
**6. Khaali
= no urs in this month
**7. ramjaan
8. eid
9. bakreed

**these months are NOT in order and i do NOT remember the rest of the months but they are based on the names of auliyaa-e-karaam.

Re: Urdu main maheenon ke naam.
